PlanMaker for Pocket PCs is now in beta stage

I received some excellent news this weekend in my inbox when I was notified that the PlanMaker beta for Pocket PC devices was ready for me to download and start testing out. PlanMaker is the new upcoming spreadsheet program for Pocket PC devices that hopes to do for Excel what TextMaker did for Word and word processing. The current beta is only available to a limited group of people who applied a while ago for selection. As an engineer I use Excel on a daily basis, and the idea that I will no longer be limited by a mobile version excites me. I loaded it up as soon as I received the e-mail and took a quick run through the application. I know this is in early beta stages, but I have to say that I am again amazed by how much functionality Softmaker can pack into a mobile device program. I think many people will be pleased when the software is released, and I'll keep you up-to-date on any information I am able to post.

Find Function(7:34pm EST Thu Feb 12 2004)Please Please Please! Tell them to include a Find function that will search across all the sheets in a workbook, and not be limited to the sheet you happen to be working on. This appears to be a flaw of all the pocketpc spreadsheets that I have tried. – by philb2k
